    In the wrong business

    BBC News - Panorama - The secret lives of Britain's child beggars

    One restaurant owner in the area said that some child beggars make £500 a day
    And no NICs, income or corp tax to pay on that!

    How does he know they make £500 a day?
    Why aren't they being rounded up by child protection services?
    Why aren't they parents in court?

    And most importantly, why isn't this in the Daily Mail?

      I thought Panorama with the easily outraged Jeremy Vine was the BBC's attempt at keeping the Daily Wail readers watching

        I saw a trailer for this and the "parents" looked Romanian to me.

        Perhaps thats why they aren't on the radar for Social Services etc.

          They are. Quel surpris!

          See certain crimes/problems affecting the UK and us nasty racist righties think "that'll be ...". Problem is for the pretenders, when the details emerge, at least 4 times out of 5 we are right.

            I bet they are the radar of tax payer funded Hooman Rights lawyers though.

                    I have a rule, I only buy a big issue if the seller can provide proof of UK residence with a passport.

                    Not one has managed to produce this, dirty stinking foreign beggers.
                    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
